Ascents in Kamari by peta barrett

Not the best warmup 😁

For Collie

Nope. Back is #%*#ed. No more steep for me. Pity, as looking back on the video of when I popped my knee on it, I had it wired.

Damn! Didn’t realize we’d already done this one! Alzheimer’s onsight??? 11 bolts. Pretty run out for Kaly but this time I actually enjoyed it. Had anticipated doing the 7a+ but it was such a spoogy soapy day, and it looked even more run out so decided on this instead. Good to know my climbing has improved in 7 years... memory is going however ...

Punchy but good.

the start always gets me..until you find the tricks

so much better the second time round.

actually felt like a good warm up

Was doing really well on the second shot until the heel hook rock on. The reverberating crack was my knee not appreciating the move. Took it easy after that but it felt ok...

One to warm up and 2 back to back to warm down

That was about all I had left in me...

Ooh two shots! Progress!

Warm up

One good shot to the anchors. Linked the middle crux, found a couple of sneaky knee bars and generally found it easier than my last shot. Only made it to the fourth bolt on my second go. This climb is exhausting!!

Warm up. X 2.

Goal of getting to the anchor without crying achieved! Surprised though. Tried a second shot and had nothing in the tank!

Warm up

2 laps intended for a warmup. Alas it was too windy and ended up with so much goat poo dust in my eyes that we bailed after the warm up...

There was yelling but no swearing.... wasn't too hard then...

Warm ups

Repeat. Warm up. Forgot about the spicy finish.

Saving myself for tomorrow so just one lap bolt to bolt. Not bad! One cruxy area that I think I can make more efficient next time.

Active rest day for a breezeless humid day. A bit crumbly.

Spooky at the greasy grey salty rock. Interesting moves.

Boldly bolted. Not so good for beginners

Found a spiky lizard near the top. Glad he didn't jump on me...

Surprisingly good. Pockets and then small sharp bits at crux. Short!!

Good. At the crux section you either have foot or handholds, not both. Don't be greedy. Good and looooong!

Meanders a bit. Good and has everything you need.

Hard for a 6a.

Really good. Have done this before when it was wet so the flash is for that ascent.

Bit chossy in places but otherwise good.
